Is it safe to use wheel adapters on Cayenne?

I found a set of 22s that I like but the wheels have a 5x112 pattern. Will it be safe to use an adapter to make it fit my 05 Cayenne S? Im not sure if vibrations will be an issue. Thanks!

I good adapter may not vibrate, but may wear drivetrain components over time. You'll have to have a pretty large offset over the already large offset the Cayenne takes in order to clear the hub and adapter and still fit. I doubt it does. 22 x 10 55mm ET is standard fit. The wheel is going to have to have probably 80+mm to fit, and I really doubt it does. Find out the offset of the wheel. If it's less than 70mm, pass because you will just chase your tail to make it fit.

ALL Porsches are 5x130 - PLEASE do not do this. Just stick with something that fits.
